Youngster David Stockbrink has arrived in Nigeria Flying Eagles camp in preparation for the forthcoming FIFA Under 20 World Cup. The 18-year-old forward has a German father and a Nigerian mother 🇳🇬 🇩🇪. Stockbrink joined coach Aliyu Zubairu’s training session, which is ongoing at the FIFA Goal Project Pitch, Abuja. Stockbrink: “It’s a pleasure for me to join the rest of the squad. The camp spirit has been high, and everyone is here to showcase talent. The tournament isn’t going to be an easy task, and I’m sure that’s why the camp is thrown open for early preparation. I ought to have made my debut earlier at the Africa Youth Championship, but my dream was halted owing to an injury I sustained a few days before the tourney, and I thank God and am back on my feet. I’m here to play with passion, knowing fully well Nigeria is a country where one has to showcase their best in order to be selected. I have all it takes to wear the green and white jersey, and I promise to never let Nigeria down.
I’m also using this medium to urge my fans to keep supporting me, for I can’t do it all alone. I’d also love to acknowledge my mother, who hails from Nigeria. It’s a thing of joy for me having an ambition to feature for Nigeria in the forthcoming tournament in Chile, and with the quality players I have seen in camp, I think we’re good to go.”
